Macros

1.1.

Generic Macros for Mages

1.1.1.

Stopcast Blink

Instant Blink

#showtooltip /stopcasting /cast Blink

Pressing Blink Icon Blink will now cancel your current spellcast and causes you to immediately Blink. Note that this should not be used with Shimmer Icon Shimmer as it will unnecessarily cancel your current cast, nor should it be used if you are casting something that you can wait to finish casting before needing to Blink

1.1.2.

1-Button Block

1-Button Ice Block

#showtooltip /stopcasting /cancelaura Ice Block /cast Ice Block

Cancels your current cast and immediately puts you in Ice Block Icon Ice Block. Pressing Ice Block again will cancel the effect. Not recommended if you spam your buttons.

1.1.3.

Block Cancel

Cancel Aura Ice Block

/cancelaura Ice Block

If you are a button spammer, you can put this on a separate keybind as your Ice Block Icon Ice Block, allowing you to cancel your Ice Block early if you so desire.

1.1.4.

Alter Time Cancel

Cancel Aura Alter Time

/cancelaura Alter Time

You can use the above macro to cancel Alter Time Icon Alter Time if you do not want to be teleported back to the location/health where you were when you initially cast Alter Time.

1.1.5.

Mouseover Decurse

Mouseover Remove Curse

#showtooltip /use [@mouseover]Remove Curse

This will remove curses on whatever unit you are mousing over. You can replace Remove Curse for any other spells you might want to do on mouseover, like Spellsteal Icon Spellsteal.

1.2.

Specific Macros for Frost Mages

Blizzard on Cursor

#showtooltip /use [@cursor]Blizzard

This will automatically place Blizzard Icon Blizzard at your mouse cursor when pressed, without having to actually click the ground. It should be noted that the cursor condition can be applied to any ground target effect, as seen in the Freeze Icon Freeze macro below.

1.2.1.

Water Elemental

Freeze on Cursor

#showtooltip /use [@cursor]Freeze

This macro will let you put the Freeze Icon Freeze ability of your Water Elemental on your action bar, and have it cast instantly at your cursor location rather than having to click.

These macros allow you to manage your Water Elemental's movement and attacks.

Pet Attack

/petattack

This orders your Water Elemental to attack your target.

Pet Follow

/petfollow

This orders your Water Elemental to follow you.

Move-to

/petmoveto

This orders your Water Elemental to move to a location of your choice. Moving your Water Elemental to a central location can be very helpful, as the Water Elemental sometimes stands very far away from the boss and wastes time chasing the boss if the boss moves.

Addons

As of Midnight, addons have been severely restricted from reading anything combat-related. However, there are still a handful of very useful addons, and more will be created as developers figure out ways to navigate the current restrictions. This list will be populated with suggestions as the season goes on and the author finalizes his UI.

2.1.

TargetedSpells

TargetedSpells is a warning when something is aiming a spell at you. Generally this will allow you to know when to hit Ice Cold Icon Ice Cold or Ice Barrier Icon Ice Barrier in the chaos of a trash pull in Mythic+. As a Mage in the world of pruned defensives, this is likely going to be the single greatest asset to you.

2.2.

ArcUI

ArcUI is an addon that revamps the cooldown manager in a way that gives you a bit more control than the default. It does have a fair amount of complexity, and some bugs as it is a new addon. However, it does do what I wanted in terms of a cooldown manager skinner, so it has earned a place on this list. What follows is an import string that will give you what I personally use.
